At first listen you can hear that Stephanie’s distinctive brand of folk-pop music is personal heartfelt, and surely has a story behind it. A troubled young person from a family in crisis at 14, a high school drop-out at 15, a runaway at 16, a druggy/dealer who participated in robberies and various crimes at 17 and a teenage welfare mom at 18, it is easy to understand the incredible passion Stephanie Pauline has for the lost and hurting. “Through it all” she says, “God never forgot me and He ultimately saved me through the healing love of Jesus Christ.” Over time, Stephanie was given a vision of using music as a way of singing hope into hurting lives. In 2003 Stephanie founded the nonprofit More than Music Inc. and since then a united band of workers and volunteers have assembled around this cause. With music played on over 500 radio stations in more than 30 countries so far, Stephanie is thankful her message of hope and healing is being heard and she relishes her time with young people in detention centers as she travels the country with her songs.
